I have gotten as high as 40 hits, always get above 35. This does ~170dmg with Brick and 165dmg with Dawn.

NOTES:
- Can easily be adapted to fit into a RK > RP > RK > RP facespam routine.
- This combo is insanely effective with the pilot DAWN, since she will build an entire bar of super energy by the time you get to the last super spot. So you can do the full combo with only one full bar to start it.

- Substitute fLP > fRP ! RP in place of fLK > fRK > RP for a nasty combo reset.
- You can also get resets by using LK early in the combo._________________"I reject your reality, and substitute my own!" - Adam Savage (MythBusters)

Seems whoever said Mantis isnt exactly the Damage master was more then right. My 40 hit combo in Chronos (without resets) does 240+ damage with Gracy. Compared to 165 in Dawn.........._________________

Nice start Endy, expected better from you though._________________

Mantis is wonderful to use because his moves flow so elegantly, i especially love is a.flk and a.frk as the little flicks to the side. (So classy to throw opponent into hazards with .

If you're fighting a predictable opponent you can kill some1 with mantis without them getting a hit in. Rk - Rp then they can evade if u know /guess which way u can do either (side evade (side punch and repeat)) or if they evade backwards continue a combo of your choice. I've done the rk rp sidepunch 5 times in a row before against AI could have done it more but they got stunned lol. Pummels their hp and sets u up for a combo when they are stunned shame u wont do any real damage with a combo but hey thats life as a mantis._________________Favourite Pilot: Reece

What in the [filtered] [filtered] is an 'RP Slide'? Does Mantis have a new move that I haven't seen?

RK pushes you about 3 HAR lenghts forward. This is 10x more deadly than jag facespam.

Once matis uses his overpowered RP to hit you into the air, you're guaranteed to eat 5-10 air hits minimum. IF you evade then he will catch you with a slide and rape your stun bar.

I've started playing with Jean-Paul since it lets me abuse superfly and super spiders insanely well and still gives me good power and endurance. It's genious._________________"I reject your reality, and substitute my own!" - Adam Savage (MythBusters)

LK is fairly usless in combos even though it deals a significant abount of damage._________________"I reject your reality, and substitute my own!" - Adam Savage (MythBusters)

Endy just FYI if you use low agil pilots with Mantis you'l never be able to abuse combo's like the faster pilots. Velocity can rip [Filter ed] into any pilot.
Saying that though Cho-Dox/Dawn/Mizuno etc can anhialate people with supers but tend to die getting stuck in (similarly to force with low agil/end pilots).

I'm only just getting the hang of mantis but i find that unless ur opponent is lagging (which is actually quite likely) they can easily evade after rp. While u cud catch them with RK slide they have to not hit u while u do it. Pyros/Mantis/Jaguar/Chronos at least can hit u after evading with their air kicks or specials dont know about other hars enough._________________Favourite Pilot: Reece

If you start your combo with RP, follow it up with LK, they can evade, but f*ck it, theyre with the back turned to you, and you can definitly a.LK them at the slightest attempt, also you get to start you combo with 4 heavys this way.

So: RP LK a.LK a.RK

Even better if you start with LK, since you (can) get:

LK a.LK a.RK RP LP RK

Something else you might find intresting is that acid spit does the damage of a heavy attack.

RK slide does a little damage more then LK Slide, however RK slide kills the combo, if you use LK slide before superslide you can still use a.fLK (for example) which makes the damage equal._________________

... and you cannot evade after RP. If you do RP > a.flp > a.frp you can evade between the light hits. (This is what a lot of newbish mantises do, and it kinda looks like ur evading right after RP)

A good player would expect that and rape your stun bar with a RP slide or a superslide combo._________________"I reject your reality, and substitute my own!" - Adam Savage (MythBusters)

Is more intresting IMHO, since a.LK is about as overpowered as RP _________________
